zain verjee. shaken and scared. a chilling flashback for the people of christchurch, new zealand. new earthquakes, a reminder of the deadly chaos in february. ash clouds keep planes on the ground in zrail and new zealand, leaving thousands of passengers stranded. and a thrilling race in canada. the formula one world champion makes a crucial mistake that throws away victory. government forces in syria aren't letting up in their crackdown on the city that's become a flash point in the country's political crisis. thousands of people from the city have fled across the border into turkey. those who remain are at the mercy of the military who took control at the weekend. they say hundreds of military vehicles and helicopters were used at the assault and there was heavy shelling. ban ki-moon has argued against
5:02 am
forces. syria tv also says authorities have found decapitated and mutilated bodies in a mass grave. it says the victims were members toof security forces who were killed by armed gangs a week ago. cnn's reporters are not allowed into syria at the moment, so we can't verify what we are hearing from either syrian state media or other sources. cnn's arwa damon is on syria's border and rev gees are telling her what happened to them. arwa. >> reporter: hi, monita. what we are able to gather is that syrian military is, in fact, in full control of citizens of jisr al shugur. they're trying to get a view of what's happening inside the town, they say to try to get the
5:03 am
truth out, because they believe that the syrian state television is simply inundateding its viewers with government propaganda. they tell us sis last night there have been no sounds of explosions but they will say in a nearby village military were combing through homes, searching house to house. we do not have any reports of new casualties that have taken attention today, but those we haven't been able to get access to have been telling hair eeing authorities. one woman was talking about how she was in a funeral when security forces indiscriminately opened fire on them. others say once they heard sounds when the military first began its main offensive, they came fleeing to turkey, fearing for their lives, taking only the clothes on their back. we're in front of this refugee camp that was the first one set up in turkey. we're prevented from going
5:04 am
inside and they have a blue tarp surrounding all of it. from the zoom on the camera, we were able to see a woman sobbing on the telephone. we don't know who she was talking to or what she was talking about but it's just an indication of what people here continue go through. monita? >> there's also that disturbing information about a mass grave being found. what the state tv or sear yab authorities are now saying are actually blaming potential armed gangs responsibility for that but local residents are saying that's another story. >> well, monita, according to what state tv was broadcasting they say they found this mass grave, there were ten bodies in it. some of them had been decapitated. others they were saying have been dismembered through the use of machetes and they're blaming this on the armed gangs as they call them. the crackdown began following a week ago when syrian state television said that 120 members of the syrian security forces
5:05 am
had been killed by these armed gangs following an ambush and a fairly intense fire fight. we have been hearing conflicting reports from activists as to what may have actually transpired. there are a number of them who are reporting that it was, in fact, a mutiny that took place in the syrian security forces, that they turned on one of them, what resulted in the casualties. there are are others that were also reporting that, yes, some residents of the town were ar d armed, and they were the ones that launched the assault on the security forces. we spoke with one activist that has a fairly secure network insi inside it. his network was still looking into it and trying to find out what transpired and certainly these images were quite disturbing and quite confusing. also trying to figure out
5:06 am
exactly what took place there. we're also doing the best we can to try to obtain accurate information as to what may have happened. monita. >> >> arwa, thank you very much for that. reporting on the turkish side of the turk eric/syrian border. >> let's see what the newspapers have to say that. international herald tribune says syrian army extinguishes an uprising in the north. turkey has allowed thousandses of residents to flee, giving a very public face to an uprising that has otherwise been cloaked behind state censorship and repression. >> by the guardian, butch ery. the world urgently needs to get its response in order, limp in its reaction. it's not realistic but the full rage should come into play.
5:07 am
final in the gulf emirates. gulf news, he runs out of friends and time. with no regime and waiting to reassure foreign powers the people of the syrian spring are dealing with the cards themselves and the ree jet stream is suddenly realizing it can't survive as it did in the '80s with only iran as a powerful friend. you can read these artd kls in full. go to our facebook page. earthquakes struck christchurch, new zealand. this time, knob seems to have died. two quakes of 5.0 or more struck within minutes of each other. you're looking at one of the earthquakes struck. authorities say several buildings collapsed and a number of people were injured. christchurch is still recovering from a deadly 6.3 magnitude
5:08 am
earthquake. we want to go to new zealand. sir, thank you very much for being with us. i guess the thankful thing is even though the quake -- the magnitude quake that struck today was just a little less than what struck in february. there are fortunately no casualties. >> yes, there are some. there's actually been about 20 aftershocks from 3:00 this afternoon we had these two big ones. there's been a lot of collateral damage. there's been 30,000 homes without electricity at the moment. a lot of the water mains, which had been repaired have been ruptured again and there's a lot of it among the suburbs.
5:09 am
yes, a huge challenge to the people in christchurch. we've had red cross volunteers working at the scene. there has been no reception tonight. at the moment it's freezing cold and christchurch is crawling but the temperatures are expected to drop below zero tonight. >> this is quite a simplistic question. you know, i'm curious to know how are the people of christchurch i guess dealing with this in the sense that here we go again. how do they even have a sense of security this their everyday lives when they thing this could happen again? >> certainly the people of cite church are certainlily resilient. they're putting everything on it. they'll be evaluating what assistance the red cross staff and volunteers can given to them. there's a lot of help to people in christchurch at the moment. >> what is most needed right now
5:10 am
in terms of aid? >> i just think tonight there'll be a lot of people relauk tant to sleep in their houses. they have blankets, warm food to these people and just giving reassurance at least until late tonight and in the morning when it's light and they can warm up but they can probably go back to the homes. . >> all right. andrew mckie from the red cross. for more, let's bring in ivan cabrera. ivan? >> the worry immediately when i saw the 6 pont 0 was the already vulnerable buildings. we have a lot of buildings scheduled for demolition. with a 6.0, they can go down
5:11 am
really easily. there is a big difference and i'll explain in a second. here is the proximate location. anywhere from essentially 9 to 10 kilometers away from the town's center here but the two earthquakes this occurred across the region here, one was a 5.2. then the other was a 6.0. the 6.0, let's go ahead and compare that to february 22nd. it doesn't sound like a big difference. but, remember, the earthquake scale is logarithmic. so a magnitude difference in one unit is significant. what happened between now and february 22nd, essentially multiple what happened today by three, so that earthquake was almost three times as strong as the one that occurred today. the other important factor is the death that occurred on february 22nd, the one that killed over 500 people, that was 5 kilometers.
5:12 am
that's a lot of walking and death for the energy that is released to get through. and so what happens is that energy attenuates or fades before it gets to the surface so that the damage to the buildings, the damage to the city is not as significant. don't pay atoejs the difference here, but basically this is the kind of scale that we use. the closer to the surface, the more damage. we have had aftershoms from 4.2 to 4.6. we'll keep you posted. another natural disaster. the volcano continues to strand passengers across australia and new zealand. i'll have a big update on that. >> fascinating there. >> yeah, in chile. thanks a lot, ivan. you're watching "world one" live from london. >> they treated injured protesters in bahrain. now a group of medics stand accused of trying to bring down the government.
5:13 am
>> our correspondent is outside the courtroom and will brick us a special report. libyan rebels say they got their hands on secret government documents. hey, max.

5:16 am
this is world one live from london. top stories. they're not letting up in their crackdown. human rights activists say hundreds of military vehicles and helicopters were used as the army moved in over the weekend and there was heavy shelling. state media says at least three people were killed on sunday, including a soldier. he has spent the last four months focusing on military strategy but on sunday he turned his attention to chess. state tv showed the libya leader facing a different kind of challenge, how to beat the
5:17 am
russian president of the world chess foundation at chess. no world on who won. libyan revels say that they've gotten hold of the government's plans for retaking misrata. now rebels say they have confiscated a document from the military office captured last month. the pages are marked top secret and talk about how to, quote, cleanse the city of militant gangs. he here's more. >> reporter: they have made the kind of discovery that can change the course of a war. they say they got ahold of their enemy's battle plan to retake the city. >> translator: it was very beneficial because we were able to find out about the brigade's movements, the direction of the attack, number of soldiers, type of soldiers and military regimes. >> they say they got it from a
5:18 am
high-ranking gadhafi officer captured in late may. they say it's an official military document. the document says it is a battle plan to cleanse the city of misrata from militant gangs and to destroy mercenary elements and deceived youth. but the vast majority of the members we have met on the front lines say they're citizens fiercely loyal to misrata and intent on protecting their families under attack. the alleged military document also contained secret codes. for example tomato is code for ammunition and beast for missiles. it also says there are more than 11,000 forces loyal to gadhafi surrounding misrata.
5:19 am
>> translator: i think the number of troops and equipment mentioned in the document are definitely exaggerated because they wanted to live their soldiers' morial. plus our intelligence on the ground indicate that they have a lot less people than what this document says. >> he tells cnn it was only use far short time before they became aware and changed their tactic. the government has not responded to our question for a comment on the awe then the it isty of the government. on sunday a government spokesman said in misrata it's only the continuous and unjustified bombardment of the sea and air that is preventing us from declaring total victory there, apparently referring to the campaign. in recent weeks nato has not been particularly active in misrata and the rebels stay in full control of the city. this reveals the regime is so desperate it's lying to its own
5:20 am
troops about their capability of the battle front. the king of jordan has promised a wash of political reforms six months after protesters demanded a greater say in the way things are run. he says he's giving up the right to select the prime monste mini and the government. instead they'll be select ed ed the majority. the kingal said there would be changes to the tax system and efforts to help young people find work. he didn't say when the reforms will be introduced. you're watching "world one." it's superman like you've never seen him before. you may not like it because there is a costume change that has got fans in a twist. i'm good about washing my face.

5:24 am
he's finally come clean saying he's never expected this level of attention. political satire actually scooped the award on the tony awards. it played in london. it was a big winner among the plays bagging five awards. i saw that in london. it was amazing. and take a look at this. okay? look very closely. can you spot the difference? hmm. what is it? oh, i'll tell you. it's missing underwear. if you look here, you can see that super man has brought his bright red trunks. he used to wear them outside of the blue suit. they've released an image of a new superman in a pair of jeans. they're hitting the reset button on the whole superhero family. they're all getting new outfits, new stories and new characters.
5:25 am
i don't know. superman without the red underwear? it's just not super man. >> i don't know. it's kind of -- i don't know. it doesn't work for me. the boots, just doesn't work. >> you're watching "world one" live from london. a big win with bigger challenges to win. it won't be a breeze. we'll have reaction out of is stan bull shortly.
5:26 am
5:27 am
5:28 am
this is "world one" live from london. i'm monita rajpal. >> and i'm zain verjee. the city of christchurch, new
5:29 am
zealand, was struck by earthquakes. there are reports that the power lines are out, phone lines are down. about 180 people were killed by an earthquake back in february. in bahrain a group of doctors and nurses who treated injured protesters during anti-government rages are standing trial today. they're accused of trying to bring down the mgovern monarchy. they say they're trying to help those. more than 3,000 people in europe have fanl ill from e. coli. german authorities have identified a farm in lower sauk sony turkey's ruling party has won a comfortable victory giving it a third term in office. prime minister ed won secured almost half of all the votes
5:30 am
cast on sunday but the poll wasn't without incident. it boosted its parliamentary presence by ten seats. >> the blast really underscores tensions between the two parts and it is among the challenges for the new government's facing. for latest now, let's go to ivan watson. ivan, how is the government going to deal with those tensions? >> reporter: that's a good question. last night in a victory speech, they did specifically address the kurds. that's turkey's largest and long oppressed ethnic minority. he said i've done away with policies, asimulation. i'm trying to end the times of your mother's tears. of the bloodshed. but shortly before he was speaking, clashes were erupting in the predominantly kurdish southeastern city between kurdish youth and police who
5:31 am
were firing water cannons and tear gas. and more disturbingly in the eastern town there was a celebration in the street when a bomb went off. the police trieded to stop them. fired tear gas. doctors told us tear gas was wafting into the hospitals choking patients and doctors, a real mess taking place there on what should have been a celebratory victory night. the main kurdish national list party was celebrating because it succeeded in winning at least ten more seats in parliament. it will be a force to be reckoned with if erdogan is going to want to draw up a new constitution. many analysts saying that constitution will have to have a new turkish identity which
5:32 am
should somehow include turk eric identity. zain? >> how's turkey dealing with the syrian refugee crisis? >> well, it certainly has been accepting these thousands of people coming across the border. the borders would remain open. the turkish authorities, the red crescent has been in the forefront. they've been providing medical care, food and water. they've been establishing camps. what's been strange is they've been restricting any access from human rights access or journalists to talk. even people who witnessed atrocities carry out by dictators in syria who want to talk to syria. it's interesting how the turkish authorities have treated these refugees differently from people who they have helped, from libya, for example, or iraq after the conflicts there. there the turks made campaign of
5:33 am
helping people. here they're trying to keep it quiet, it's probably due to their sense tirchties with their relationship with the dictator across the border. there are signs of tension mounting here. last night an agency reported that a crowd tried to mob the turk eric embassy in damascus. they tried to tear down the turkish flag and put up a syrian flag. as we've seen again and again in syria, when you try to organize a street protest there, more often than not the syrian forces try to open fire and try to kill you. the fact that this crowd was able to gather in you up town damascus and swarm the embassy suggests the sear yab authorities wanted to send a signal to the turkish government even after its quiet remarkable victory.
5:34 am
let's take a closer look now at that syrian refugee situation. thank you very much for being with us. as we heard there from our skronlt in istanbul, ivan watson, it's difficult for anyone to get firsthand accounts of what they've been through or what they are going through at this pint. have you been able to talk to anyone within the refugee camp? >> you know o. yes, it's correct that it's impossible until now to get inside the refugee camp, however, it is possible to get information by effectively sneaking into one of two of the hospitals in the province where i was yesterday and also where i am now on the border. i've been able to talk to tens of syrians today going back and
5:35 am
forth bringing bread to their families and displaced neighbors who are just on the other side of the border. >> what are they telling you about how they've been treated? >> well, on the turkish side, something different. on the sear yarng it's really quite chilling. so almost all of them are saying that their villages and i have a rather long list of them have basically been em teed. that the syrian army, it should be hard. they've gone in with tanks and machine guns and a couple of helicopters and so on and they a have attacked the houses. they even killed and slaughtered. they've burned the crops, the seas. they are pushing the people up to the border. and they're said to be 10,000 or so just on the other side of the border. we are seeing pictures of them
5:36 am
which have been kind of smuggled through even people who bravely took a camera across and as people say here, i can see that they have been sleeping under the stars effectively, under trees. it was rang last night. lots of injured people and people with sicknesses who have opinion on the road for up to ten days, some of them. so, yes, it's a very bad situation. >> there are some reports that nearly 10% of those killed, those casualties are children, and now we understand there are reports -- we've been reporting on two teenagers whose bodies have been returned and they've been mutilated. now there's a report of a third teenager. do you know anything more about this? we have seen cases from information we've received from syria. there's a third one we found the teenager who was 18 or 19, and
5:37 am
he also had been tortured to death. the state of his body which i saw on video clip is the worst i've seen and i've seen sadly about 20 until now. a head which was beat on the a pulp, the skin kind being ripped off somehow and the neck was broken and his leg was broken as well. >> sorry, go ahead, please. >> i was going to say i think it's a little bit less than 107 but it's still a very high figure. amnesty has collected up 2082 names of children who have been killed, a figure which is probably about 1,200 of them. that's just the remains we have. the figure is certainly higher than that. >> neil samonds. thank you for that.
5:38 am
we're joined now on the phone by the mayor of christchurch. thank you for being with us. can you tell us what the last casualty numbers are? >> well, we've lost no lives in the serious aftershocks. there are a small number of injuries, a handful, maybe around 60 people taken to hospital with minor injuries but back with their families now. the damage to the city has been incrementally more than with experience so far but generally in the same area. but the greatest damage is the internal district as people look at where they found themselves. people are really ripe on the age. a number of people have chosen this time to leave. it's just too much for them. but for a great majority of the
5:39 am
people, the damage that's in front of them is just another job that has to be dub. they've picked themselves up. we need to do the best we can in absolutely extraordinary times. >> with the pair of quakes today, who needs help the most? >> well, i think that we're certainly coping with all of the needs that we have in the community. we lost a lot of power, and water has gone out to a large part of the steady. already 6,000 home without pow every. water pressure is rising again. the greatest need for people now, really, is the need that they can provide to each other. they'll be experiencing more aftershocks overnight and getting through the night and seeing sunrise tomorrow will
5:40 am
raise spirits i'm sure. we've been through an awful lot and this is not going to break. >> just the psychological pressures you were saying that so many people face. we actually have a viewer question from facebook by jean mcneill. she asks this. are they going to bring in some counseling and help those who are severely stressed. she goes on to say i have heard from friends and they need help from the panic and stress. are you going to provide that? >> yes. it's something we've been providing. there are services and support for that. i think a lot of people are are inclined to just think i can cope with this, but there are about a half a million people. they're suffering some level of
5:41 am
stress and draw machlt there is counseling being provided. there are those who need to make a phone call to the government department or counsel and we can direct them to the right place. >> the mayor of christchurch, bob parker, thank you so much. >> this is "world one" live from london. coming up in our sports update. game six of the fastball nba finals and about tbig one comin. ♪ ♪ [ son ] you realize, it's gotta run out sometime.

5:52 am
protesters were rallying, seeking sapgt anctuary. the government accuses them of te turning the hospital into a base frl the opposition. >> we've had deaths, ambulances not being allowed to leave the hospital grounds. we've got evidence of platforms being used in the complex where they have staged political rallies. >> reporter: one of the accused doctors fled to the u.s., escaped. and the government said the doctors there were excluding patients on a sectarian basis. sclugd excluding sunnis. >> that is a lie. why would we do that. why on one side we do human
5:53 am
thing, on the other side, the opposite. >> >> reporter: in february they were clashing with the police. on this tiny island a sunni minority rules the sheer majority. almost all of the doctors and nurs nurses. except for a few exceptions they dare not talk to us. some have been beaten and told not to speak to journalists like us burke this brair father overcame his fear out of love for his son. >> as a father when you see a lot of doctors like that, you see -- then you say, what is this world? if they tell me my son has come forward, what crime, what crime? a crime to be as a doctor?
5:54 am
is this a crime? >> reporter: he tells me he son is locked in a tiny cell with nine others. ten people in a 6 meter by 6 meter room. >> 6 meter square. >> that's even smaller. government officials deny the accusations saying the doctors and nurses are being held according to the international standards but human rights organizations say there's worse, that some are tortured and beaten all because they say they dared to challenge the government. as protests rage, accurate casualty figures are hard to come by. >> journalists find it. that is their government so much because that exposes the human rights, the crimes, commented by government. so the government targeted them
